Ceniza en las Fauces

“Every beast he kills leaves its strength in his tendons and erases a name from his memory.”

Having survived the fractures rotting the metropolitan asphalt, Mateo returns to the surface with borrowed tendons and the throbbing agonies of the beasts he tore apart beating against the back of his neck.

When the last ballast flickers out, he must choose between preserving the remnants of his humanity or being swallowed by the jaws he usurped.
